MapMyRide has been a bit of a thorn the last couple of years -- I loved being able to map my bike rides, but it was painfully slow, hard to correct, and the interface was sub-great. But they've got a much improved site in beta, it works beautifully (and of course now I have a screamingly fast computer that can handle it), and now they have a stupid web trick that I can't help but love: fly-over video, courtesy of Google Earth, of my bike routes. It's like having a helicopter flying over my route, and the imagery gives me features of the terrain that I never see from the bike. Stupidly cool.
